The End Of Subsidy Is Coming To An End. Cotton Planting Intention Has Picked Up.

Up to now, Cotton Subsidy and distribution work has been going on for several months, and most cotton farmers in Xinjiang have got full subsidies.

The final subsidy standard of Xinjiang autonomous region reaches 267.63 yuan / mu, the yield subsidy standard of land cotton is 0.688 yuan / kg, and the special cotton yield subsidy standard is 0.893 yuan / kg. According to the difference of cotton yield per mu, the total subsidy funds of cotton per mu cotton in autonomous region is roughly 400-500 yuan.

In the nine Cotton Subsidy provinces of the mainland, five provinces have issued the implementation plan of cotton target price subsidy, all of which are subsidized according to cotton planting area.

Owing to the difference in cotton area and output between the nine provinces, the amount of subsidy is also slightly different. According to the data obtained, the subsidy amount in Shandong is the highest, and the subsidy per mu is 235 yuan, and the subsidy amount in other provinces is expected to be 200 yuan.

According to the China Cotton Association survey, after the Spring Festival, the average cotton planting intention dropped by 23%.

According to the subregional perspective, the target price subsidies in Xinjiang cotton area are basically in place, and the intention of planting cotton has picked up earlier than before.

Among them, the cotton planting intention of Xinjiang in February dropped by 8.25% compared with the same period last year, a decrease of 3.3 percentage points.

Among the surveyed cotton farmers, 9.78% of cotton farmers were prepared to reduce their planting area, accounting for 3.4% of households, 58.99% of the same as last year, and 27.83% of the total.

Still wandering around.

The main reason why cotton farmers in Xinjiang choose to continue planting cotton are: first, corn, sugar beet, tomato and other crops are not subsidized; two, cotton farmers have improved cotton planting technology in recent years, and are not familiar with other crops planting methods.

Three, farmland facilities are basically in line with the requirements of cotton planting.

According to press reports, as at the end of February,

Seed cotton sale progress is over 60%, down 20% compared with the same period last year, indicating that cotton growers lack confidence in planting cotton in 2015.

Although cotton fields have been reserved in some areas, the final income is still needed.

There are more rain and snow in the Yangtze River Valley, and the progress of seed cotton sale is over 90%, but it is still slower than the same period last year. With the gradual introduction of subsidy policies in Jiangsu, Jiangxi and Anhui provinces, the intention of planting cotton has picked up, reaching 38.61%, an increase of 3.26 percentage points.

The above shows cotton target price.

To a certain extent, it has played a stabilizing role in maintaining domestic cotton production, and has better completed its mission in 2014.

At the moment, we will enter the stage of spring plowing and broadcasting, usher in another cotton rotation, and cotton farmers will make the final choice according to their subsidy income and market anticipation.
